This is my first review on any car. I hate this little compact, no power Flintstone vehicle. Be prepared to do more maintenance, more frequently than any other vehicle. The turbo engine is a baby. Change your oil every two thousand miles or if you make it to five thousand, you most definitely need a tune up, cost 740.00!!! Crappy car that has problems climbing a hill. I have owned mine for three years. Looks brand new, depreciated very quickly. I have only put 10k miles on it and it required 2 tune ups. Run, if you see one.

The turbo went out 2 months after I bought it, then the ac. Fixed those issues, 2 months later it starts making a loud rattling sound and we took it to the shop they could not figure out what it was. They put a ton of new parts on, still would not fix the noise and it only did it on gravel roads but the sound was insanely loud and annoying. Then it started having oil leaks over and over in different spots. Also, gas mileage is awful on this suv, it has NO horse power AT ALL. It’s god awful on the highway you have to keep your foot pressed on the gas to even get it up to 65-70. It’s just so awful. The ac kept randomly getting warm after getting fixed. The ac also was terrible in the car, had no power, the trunk is so tiny. This suv is honestly the WORST vehicle I ever owned. I ended up stop driving it and bought something else and currently trying to sell after only having it 4 months. DO NOT BUY!!!

I looked for a used car for at least a year. I was overwhelmed almost but when I saw the s Buick Encore I fell in love with it. The dealership that I bought it from were very nice and helpful. The car is roomy but not to small. I’m very happy even with the color.
Too small front passenger seat not equal ..i

I bought a 2016 encore used it had 27,000 miles on it . Nice little car very dependable so far but there’s no storage space at all no console and drink cup holders are almost in the back seat. The audio system is ok but hope you have time to set things up cuz nothing is labeled .. seats are uncomfortable only one arm rest up from none for the passenger the driver seat is electric but not the passengers also the front seats aren’t even the same the back of the drivers side is leather and the passenger side back is hard plastic.. what??? The design of the interior is awful. They definitely forgot about the front seat passenger!
